Assessing the quality of e-learning with the help of two different perspectives among high school students (Case study: High schools in Jahrom, Iran)

Öz

With the increasing growth of information and the continuous efforts of communities to facilitate communication and the growing need of communities for learning and education, through platforms such as the Internet and cyberspace, without the need for direct contact, people can remotely learn and exchange knowledge. Many disadvantaged areas that in the past lacked proper education and learning can now access vast educational resources and add other resources themselves. The scope of these areas is expanding day by day so that the presence of big data in any business or service where a large amount of data is produced, and the use of communities is of particular importance. The E-learning management system is a virtual educational software. With the help of this system, people can enroll in training courses. In this study, two methods that examine the effect of e-learning are evaluated. Two Likert-Like methods have been selected due to the spread of Coronavirus in Iran and the virtualization of school classrooms. Most of the effort of this article is based on estimating the educational quality of students. In the first phase, about 10 schools and 661 students have been selected. From the selected students, three groups of online, combined, and offline were selected and the desired examinations were performed according to the results of their exams. According to the results, unfortunately, only 25% of the students had a good quality of education, which shows the cost and ineffectiveness of this education.
